MP3: Brine - Make it to Berlin
Brine is a Swedish band that goes for the artsy indierock thing with varying degrees of success. Most often they stick with the tried and true path of Sonic Youth worship, but every so often they let their quirkier side show through such as on "Make it to Berlin". The focus is shifted to vocals and drums; everything else is incidental. Perhaps not quite at the level of "We will rock you", but it's certainly anthemic nonetheless. And riddle me this: what's with all the Swedes moving to Berlin anyway? Is that grass really that much greener? There's gotta be places at home where the bohemian lifestyle is still within reach, right?
